Experience the chilling presence of ghosts and shades, and uncover the secrets of communicating with the departed in the séance room. A prominent figure in the Theosophical movement following Madame Blavatskys passing, Leadbeaters own journey led him through a remarkable 2,300-year wait in the heaven-world before reincarnating in Stockport, Cheshire.
